[jira] Commented: (MNG-2975) test scope does not work with pom dependency

["Ittay Dror (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2975?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=219819#action_219819 ] 

Ittay Dror commented on MNG-2975:
---------------------------------

I'm also having some issues with this decision. In my tests I need some supporting utilities. These are packaged inside a test jar (using the test-jar goal of maven-jar-plugin). Because of another bug, this jar's dependencies are not used. A workaround could be to use a pom, but according to this bug this is not possible

> I have a project A with pom packaging (<packaging>pom</packaging>) that use this dependency : 
> 		<dependency>
> 			<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
> 			<artifactId>spring-mock</artifactId>
> 			<version>2.0</version>
> 			<scope>test</scope>
> 		</dependency>
> In project B , I try to use the project A like a dependency like this :
> 	<dependency>
> 			<groupId>xxx</groupId>
> 			<artifactId>SOFFWK_LIBS</artifactId>
> 			<version>1.0</version>
> 			<type>pom</type>			
> 		</dependency>
>  I don't get the spring-mock transitive dependency when I compile or test project B.
> Is it because it has a test scope?
